General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function HtrA2 has a moderate ability to delay the aggregation of citrate synthase in vitro. Additionally, using electron microscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance analyses, it is observed that HtrA2 significantly delays the aggregation of the Abeta1-42 peptide. The protease activity of HtrA2 and its PDZ domain are not essential for the delay of Abeta1-42 peptide aggregation Homo sapiens
